The Natural History of Selborne; Gilbert White ISBN: 978-1-904690-14-6 Visit main web page.

Gilbert White's series of letters to Thomas Pennant Esq. and the Hon. Daines Barrington were the first, and certainly the most popular, natural history account, published in many editions since its first publication in the 18th century.

Our e-book is based upon the classic 1813 edition, and includes all of its important supplements and phenological observations.

White's vivid accounts of the natural history of the 18th century are made all the more remarkable because the village remains almost the same to this day. This is shown by the inclusion of the text of modern images of the places described by White.
